The experiment's third and final result, based on the last three years of data, is in perfect agreement with previous results, further solidifying the experimental world average.
Fermilab's Muon g-2 experiment brings particle physics closer to a showdown between theory and experiment.
For the Muon g-2 experiment, researchers create billions of muons to study their surprising properties.
Building experimental evidence suggests that the electron, muon and tau may feel different forces.
Even experiments that aren’t looking for dark matter directly could give us hints about the mysterious substance that permeates our universe.
The new measurement from the Muon g-2 experiment at Fermilab strongly agrees with the value found at Brookhaven and diverges from theory with the most precise measurement to date.
A super-precise experiment at Fermilab is carefully analyzing every detail of the muon’s magnetic moment.
Here’s how physicists calculate g-2, the value that will determine whether the muon is giving us a sign of new physics.
The discovery of the muon originally confounded physicists. Today international experiments are using the previously perplexing particle to gain a new understanding of our world.
Physicists often find thrifty, ingenious ways to reuse equipment and resources.
The Muon g-2 experiment has begun its search for phantom particles with its well-traveled electromagnet.
For a little over a month this summer, a huge electromagnet slowly journeyed from New York to Illinois, offering great photo opportunities along the way.
The 50-foot-wide electromagnet for the Muon g-2 experiment has completed its five-week journey from New York to Illinois.
Symmetry writer Andre Salles tells you everything you always wanted to know about moving a gigantic electromagnet but were afraid to ask.
The muon—the short-lived cousin of the electron—could be the key to understanding relationships between other fundamental particles. And it holds a mystery all its own.
